ses delivered tilling speeches in At

Gov. Colquitt,
t)r. ll.'v. M. killer is said not to
have delivered a single'stump speech.
His recent trip to Cer'odhco ' Was not
for political speaking.
Wonder it Mr. Norwood’has not
put his eye and set his heart on
the U. S. Senate instea'd bf the
Governorship of Georgia. ’Our
impression is tliat is the milk in
the coacount on’which ho is saw
ing. Men are moTisti'uoits curious
these days.
Gen. Gordon spoke in Columbus
last Fiiday uigffct. ’llo'Was greeted
ed with hisses and sneers' tro'ln many,
in reply to which lie told them that
he had ’heard more dangerous hisses
from mimiic balls and never left the
field. He wcnt'Uoldly up'to the is
sues and charged Gov. Smith with
uutkuthf&l statements, arid '6'ceounts
for his inability to ’Understand his
resignation in the fact the ex Gov
ernor failed ) to get’the nppuifitment.
Mr. Norwood i'fid 'his followers
claim they did notpervent the major
ity from securing a 1 two-tidrds vote'
in the late corivcntion. Now let’s see.
There were 350 delegates in the con
vention. 2331-3 constituted the
two-thirds. Now, had Mr. Norwood
and his other cbmtaittcemen have
voted for Colquitt instead dittoing as
they have, Cdlquitt would have reciv
ed more than two-thirds, llow is
that for consistency.
Webster says politics means the
socle nee cf government;'that part of
ethics which has to do with the regu
lation and government ot a nation or
state,*ihe preservation of its safety
peace and prosperity, the defences
against its existence and rights
against foreign control of concfuefct,
the augmentation of its strength and
resources and the protection of its
citizens in their rights, with iho pres
ervation and improvement of their
morals. How differently some people
regard politics.
Some of the anti-Colquiit papers
arc jubilating and saying Norwood
completely dimolisbed Coquitt in Au
gusta, on the 2GLh ult., and drove him
from* the field'Sh disgust long before
his time was but. the truth is Nor
wood had chance to, employ bis first
alotinent ol tiino, in misrepresenting
Coqluitt, and, in a few imitates after
Colquitt began the refutation, a
heavy rain set in and Gov. Colquitt
dismissed the audience, who was
standing under umbrellas.
The last effort of ex-Governor H V
Johnson, was to preserve 1 the lmf*uooy
of the £>emocratic party'of Georgia.
Wc clip the above from several ex
changes—mostly Norwood. They for
get lb state that this effort was directed
to the‘‘refractory minority.” and that
they spurned the “old man eloquent’s”
last appeal.—Telegraph and Messen
ger.
The Camilla Dispatch: “And if we
can notsupport Colquitt, we desire it to
be distinctly understood that we will
not support Norwood, In addition to
the above, considering, as wo do, tjiat

Convention of the Fouith Cougrts
sional District-
Tha Dcmoci title eon vent ion of the
Fourth Congres; ii'tti'l lYi-jtnet nn i in
LnOrtinge on the ’2 tn of Augm-t.
Hon. Henry It Hart is v.n 1 1 t-.d |
cliarirmnit, and It A Mus-oy <>l lhuig 1
Ins, and Will W Singleton ot Mo
rion, st'crctnrios. The two-thirds
rule was adi'plcd. Mr. Post, of Cow
eta, presented to the convention the
untno of Hon. P F Swiln; Judge
But', ol Marion, put in nomination
Hon, Henry Persons; Judge Long
ey, of Troup, oflbred to the conven
tion Hon. Albert Cox. These nomi
nations were all accompanied by
short, ringing speeches.
The convention then prococded to
balloting. Ou a test hip lot the vote
stood: Cox 15J; Smith, 0; Persons
16. It was evident,to all,that there
could bo no nomination of cither of
the three candidates before the con
volition. On t|io morning of the sec
ond day Cox ask. and permission to ap
pear before the convention, and in
an eloquent speech, declared that
he “could never be a vvedgo between
the brethren,’’ and withdrew his
name from before the convention.—
The wildest’ enthusiasm prevailed
over'this patriotic aetton of Cox.—
Leading in the convention, none but
a man who loves the party more than
himself, and haunony “among the
brethren” in preference to self- pro
motion could have acted as did Mr.
Cox.
When Cox withdrew from, the con
test, it was thought between persons
and’Smith the convention could s on
make choice. But Mr. Massey, of
Douglas, put in nomination Judge
Hugh T. BucHarian, of Coweta. An 1
it was soon Shown that we were no
nearer a nomimination th-m before
Cox Withdrew. Thus ballot after
ballot was taken until, on ' the
ballot, when Smith received the 26
votes necessary lor a nomination, but
before the secretary handed’ the tally
sheet'to the tliair ; 1 vote from Ma
rion and 2 from Trohp were with
drawn frfc’fn him. Peabody, of Mus
cogee, stated that it was plain that
no nomination could be’made from
the names before the convention, and
moved‘that a corfimiUed’of confer
ence, ’ consisting of one from ehfch
comity, be appointb<P to' consult to
gether 1 to suggest sonic plan by which
a nomination might bo made. The
committee retired and after an hour’s
consultation reported that they had
failed to agree. The chairman of the
committee reported that they had
under bonsideraiiou the names of
two gentlemen to oiler to the conven
tion, that or.o eight were in favor,
and tour opposed. The writer wii 1
state, that from private sources ho
heard that the gent'eman whom
eight' out of'tlie twelve favored ofl'et
ing to the convention, was Edgar M
Butt, of Marion. -After the report
of the committee, lievill, of Meri
wether, arose 'and' in a speech said
that on his own,responsibility he put
in nomination Col. Edgar M Butt.—
Upon the first ballet he would have
becta nominated had Mai ion county
cast a solid vote lor him, Thus for
several ballots the solid vote of Ma
rion was all that was needed io give
him the nomination. Col. Butt
worked no political w res to get his
name before the convention; ho in no
shape or form whatever, directly or
indirectly, was interested in bringing
his name to the consideration of the
convention. As an evidence of this,
the dtl gates from Marion did not
solidly support him, when every ono
of them'knew that he could carry tin
county over ay man in the district.
After Col. Butt’s name was with
drawn, the Hon. Hugh T. Buchanan
was offered to the convention by the
friends of Mr. Smith, and he received
the nomination This is one instance
when the office sought the man and
not the man the office. After tho
nomination Cox was loudly called for,
and appeared before them, and made
a ringing speech, lie was immense
ly applauded. Smith was th n call -
ed for, aud he responded in a speech.
Capt, Persons was loudly called for,
but that gent’eman having retired
sent a friend to congratulate them on
the nomination and assure the con
vention that he would abide their ac
tions.
The chairman appointed Messrs.
Butt, Peabody, Longlcy, Glover and
Post to notifv Jgcige Buchanan of
his nomination.
The chairman then’ appointed the
following Executive Committee.
W A Post, of Coweta, Chairman;

on’y temporary, but under the
technical ru'es of tho law was not
a'lowed to make the prOof, consti
tutes this a case of such doubtful
equity that this compromise- has
b cn deemed a fair one by al
l ight-minded men acquainted with
the facts.
r iin’ letter of Mr. Grant
and tlreinaoi'sentonts of the attor
neys, for the information of the
people, as to tiro basis of my ac
tion.
THE STATE FINANCES AND TAXATION.
Mr. Norwood makes the point
that , have violated tho law bv lev
yiug excessive taxes. Ho says,
“there was an act passed in 1878
which required the raising SIOO,-
000 p r annum to pay the interest
upon certain bonds called the Nut
ting bonds,” and that I levied one
tenth of one pet cent, for that pur
pose. Mr. Norwood either igno
rantly or wilfully, mistakes tho
law. There is no such s'at
ut<>. There is a statute of IS7B
which required the raising of SIOO,-
000 in excess of the amount other
wise authorized to bo collected, for
the the payment, not of the inter
est on the Nutting bonds, but for
the payment annually of SIOO,OOO
of the principal of said bonds.
The interest of these b lids is part
of the interest on the public debt,
and is embraced in tho general pro
vision made for the payment of,in
terest on tho public debt,
Under this statute my predeces
sor for the throe years prior to the
commencement of my admini-tr i
tion, embracing every year since
the bonds were issued, nr red one
tenth of one per cent in addition
to the general levy to meet the an
nual payment, ef the statute. T
continued this same assessment
daring the years 1377 and 1878
but finding that it raised more
money than was necessary f- -r the
purpose above mentioned, I reduc
ed it and ordered an assessment
of one-half qf one-tenth of one
per cent for the years 1879 and 18-r
80. 'No pbrtiOn of the money col
lected as aforesaid was misapplied
but it went to’the payment of the
public expenses and the reduction
of the public debt.
Aud in this, connection Mr. Nor
wood makes another statement
which shows his reckless disregard
of facts, or his reluctance to con
duct such investigations as are
necessary to arrive at a knowl
edge of the tiuih. He says: “But
for the Nutting bonds, four-tenths
would have been ample to have
raised all the money needed by
tli, state, 'and in fixing this rate
one half of one mill would have
been ample to have raised th
money to pay tho interest on
those bonds. I heivforo, instead
of fixing tho rate at one half if
one per cent., ho shou'd have fix
ed it at four and ono-lia'f tenths
per cent.”
Here again Mr. Norwood fails
into the < rror of confounding the
principal with the interest, When
he sp"aks of the amount to be
raised on Nutting bonds. Now, i!
Mr. Norwood had given himself
the troubc to have ascertained the
facts, and had been willing to do
me Miid niv administration justice, Im
would have informed his audience
that instead of collecting four and
one-half tenths of one per cent, I
am only'collecting three and onc
lia'f tenths of one per cent, to meet
all the current* expenses of the
government, pay tlio interest on
the whole pub ic debt to pay
SIOO,OOO annually of the principal
of the Nutting bonds. But it seems
this was a fact that did not suit,
his purpose and he was careful to
withhold it from the pulie.
Mr. Norwood's purpose seems to
have been to create the impression
upon the public mind that my ad
ministration has been an oppress
ive one, and that I have collected
from tHe people unnecessary tax
es. What are tho facts? I com
pare the yeai 1876, the last, year
of my predecessor’s administra
tion and 1879, the last completed
year of my own, In 1879, as
shown by the comptroller’s report
of that year, the value of the tax
able property of the state was
$2-15,853,750. On this a tax ot 5s
10 of one per cent was levied,
which raised $1,229,208. 1 1 1879,
under my administration, the
whole value of the taxable prop
erty was $255,093,419. On this
a tax of 35-100 of ono per cent was
levied which raised $788,820, mak
ing $440,442 lees raised in 1379
by general taxation by my admin
istration t an in 1876 under my
predecessor'sadmini .--t ration. The
